kernfs: fix get_active failure handling in kernfs_seq_*()

kernfs: fix get_active failure handling in kernfs_seq_*()

When kernfs_seq_start() fails to obtain an active reference, it
returns ERR_PTR(-ENODEV).  kernfs_seq_stop() is then invoked with the
error pointer value; however, it still proceeds to invoke
kernfs_put_active() on the node leading to unbalanced put.

If kernfs_seq_stop() is called even after active ref failure, it
should skip invocation of @ops->seq_stop() and put_active.
Unfortunately, this is a bit complicated because active ref failure
isn't the only thing which may fail with ERR_PTR(-ENODEV).
@ops->seq_start/next() may also fail with the error value and
kernfs_seq_stop() doesn't have a way to tell apart those failures.

Work it around by factoring out the active part of kernfs_seq_stop()
into kernfs_seq_stop_active() and invoking it directly if
@ops->seq_start/next() fail with ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) and updating
kernfs_seq_stop() to skip kernfs_seq_stop_active() on
ERR_PTR(-ENODEV).  This is a bit nasty but ensures that the active put
is skipped iff get_active failed in kernfs_seq_start().

tj: This was originally committed as 851ed12184b6 but got reverted by
    6398133d35e9 along with other kernfs self removal patches.
    However, this one is an independent fix and shouldn't have been
    reverted together.  Reinstate the change.  Sorry about the mess.
